“Nice location, very close to the exit. The gas was pretty cheap, especially for Connecticut. The convenience store was very cozy and the staff were friendly. The bathroom are pretty clean definitely up there in terms of cleanliness compared to some other places. Worth stopping here.”
“Out of four stations in the area this is the only one that did not lie about its hours and was actually open when it said it was. Five stars by comparison for meeting the basic provisions of selling a product I guess”
“always super friendly and they did a great job bringing the store back to life from its old store front! Gas is always cheaper than most all in town! my go to place!”
“Nothing really outstanding about this place, other than the nice staff. Expensive, as most stations are for milk. Clean enough and usually not too busy when I visit. Lots of items in the store, definitely worth stopping here”
“👍🏾 Outstanding service from Qadeer—he truly values his customers! I visited this Cumberland Farms location on Friday morning, September 4, 2026, and was immediately greeted by three welcoming employees. One of them looked incredibly familiar. When I went up to the retail counter to ask a question, we both had a wonderful surprise—it was Qadeer! We realized we hadn’t crossed paths since before Covid, though I had recognized him from a few other Cumberland Farms locations in the past. Qadeer is consistently friendly, highly professional, and an asset to your team. Having a customer-facing team member who actually remembers and connects with their customers makes an amazing difference in the shopping experience. Please make sure corporate management and the store leadership team share this review with Qadeer so he knows his hard work and great attitude are appreciated. I plan to follow up in a few weeks to ensure this feedback actually made it to him, as I know great employee reviews sometimes get lost in the pipeline. Thank you”
“Loving the new hot bar. Life changing for our family. Faster than fast food and we just bring it home and sit around the table as if we cooked it. It's not bad tasting --definitely 10 steps above Shop Rite's hot bar. It's cheap too. For a family of 5, we pay less at Stop & Shops hot bar than McDonalds! I'll keep coming back several times a week just for that hit bar. Thank you Stop & Shop!”
“Gentlemen working at 1am was showing such grace to a man that was unfortunately in a less fortunate situation. Instead of being dismissive or asking the man to leave, he was kind and respectful. The world needs more people like him who give such grace to a stranger. You never know someone’s story, their struggles or losses, but it’s free to always be kind. God bless that young man.”
“I Just walked in to get some gas and some nicotine pouches, I was greeted almost immediately by Mallory, she had absolutely no reason to help me, but she literally went out of her way to explain the whole rewards program, any question I had she answered without hesitation. Highly recommend because of how helpful Mallory was, Not to mention the great deals in rewards system all town has! It’s my new go to place!”
“I just started going to this gas station, the gentleman behind the counter His name is Philip, Philip ALREADY knows me by name, he remembers my EXACT order every time. He is so kind and friendly I catch myself talking to him for a good while! they have the best selection of everything! Philip is the main reason I will literally not go to any other gas station! keep it up guys!Thank you Philip!-Roger Sheak”

Love's Travel Stops is rolling out a new system that turns work into a game for its restaurant employees. Picture this: Three big screens in each restaurant, tracking how fast workers greet customers, take orders, and hand out food. It's not just for show - early results say it's making service 11 seconds faster on average. "These monitors track key performance metrics in real-time, such as greet times, order processing times and the time it takes for food handoff," Love's explains. The system creates a more interactive environment, fostering friendly competition between stores.
